I could never be consistent with my gym visits until I started at the Armory. It’s not only the gym itself (which is great!) but also the coaches (Rob and Shane are amazing) and the community and the atmosphere!Really happy my wife and I found this place over a year ago! Kudos!

I had (and am still having) the best experience with this place. I went in in February to ask them if they could help me with age related strength training. I am 57 and was experiencing some pretty bad knee and hip pain. I ended up signing up for some personal training with Emilio before committing to a membership / the classes because I really wasn't sure I could do the classes. Emilio worked with me on a customized basis, targeting my knee and hip pain, which was great. The biggest thing he helped me with, however, was my diet, which I didn't even know needed to change. He explained the pain I was experiencing was 75% due to my diet which was causing inflammation. He gave me an easy, anti-inflammatory eating plan to follow, which, no joke, has changed my life. When I went in in February, I literally could barely get out of my car without using my arms to pull myself up. Walking up and down stairs was painful. After working with Emilio for 2 MOS, I can now get out of my car using my hips and legs like everyone else in the world. I can walk up and down stairs with no pain. And, get this, I can do Crossfit classes! Hah! I really can't say enough about how Emilio and the Armory are helping and continue to help me. Member for life. :)

Amazing! From the owners, to the staff, facility, equipment, and the community there. The staff are incredibly helpful and really share their wealth of knowledge in nutrition and fitness to help you reach your goals.Denis is a great coach who makes you feel comfortable but also pushes you ever so gently to do just a little more.If you’re looking to make some real changes with great community, Armory is where it’s at!

Training at the Armory has been an awesome fitness-building experience. The equipment is clean and new. Joel (the owner) puts a lot of careful thought into the workout regimen, and promotes an atmosphere of acceptance and positivity - I've never felt self conscious heading into class.I felt that it was important for me to incorporate personal training due to my long history of chronic injury as an athlete. Denis (personal trainer) is always attentive and helped me build skills and confidence - always paying careful attention to safety and technique. They've made lifting fun!

If you live anywhere near The Armory and are looking for a gym you have to check them out. Classes are great and personal training is top notch. I worked with Denis on building a better foundation of strength and I saw fast results in my lifts, mobility, and overall strength. Both Denis and Joel know how to help you make each rep count! Plus, the community is full of really cool people. Highly recommend!

Where to start... this place, the owner, the coaches, everything is top tier! Joel, the owner, is easily one the best programmers in the game as the WOD’s are challenging, but fun and entertaining. He is extremely passionate about fitness. He does a great job of uplifting everyone and making it so effortless to feel comfortable there or “fit in”. Everyone who comes here is very welcoming. As far as the gym itself goes, it is as clean a gym you could want! All equipment is thoroughly wiped down after each and every use, the floors are swept and mopped nightly and the two bathrooms are immaculate. So happy to see what Joel has accomplished with this place!
